<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: CoeburnCane</div><div class="ubbcode-body">Call me nuts--but I've been calling it since the first time I've seen Alec Osborne play that he'd go play somewhere on the D1 level. He's got that speed you can't teach. If someone can just put some more bulk on him, he'd at the very least make a D1 squad as a reserve RB or OLB and a special teamer. There are smaller D1 schools in the country that could very well offer him a scholly because they can't get those big guys with speed, so they settle for smaller guys with speed--so there's a market out there for him, recruiting-wise. I think he could go to Appy State or another DII school and do well if he doesn't go D1. If guys like Chris Robinson & Derek Robbins focus in on football and want to--they could go to the next level as well...but Alec's ceiling, to me, is much higher due to his speed.

I also think Shane Bright has the athleticism to at least play somewhere around here on the next level as a LB or FB. </div></div>

I don't mean this in a bad way, but it's pretty much the only way it's going to sound... the kid doesn't have the heart or the desire. When you refuse to play because you get a cold or you wont go back in the game because you've got a bruised arm, that says alot. The kid has lots of potential and tons of speed and lots of other positives, but he's kind of soft.
